The baldfaced hornets are intimidating flying insects which always keep their eye on your home because you are unknowingly attracting them. Like other pests and insects, the hornets also search for food, water and shelter. They are the stinging insect that looks like a yellow jacket, but they have a black and white face or body.
They grow up to ½ to 5/8 inch in size while their queen grows up to a ¾ inch. The hornet is very aggressive and can attack anyone who disturbs them. Their sting can leave an allergic reaction on human skin. So, it is necessary to keep them away.
